When you think of a Christmas what do you think of?

Do you think of Halo?

Do you think of Destiny?

Do you think of Minecraft?

Or what about Titan Fall?

 

Everybody in the forums deserves a gift from me.

Halo Spartan Asssault REVIEW
 

 

HALO-SA-32x18-RGB-Lo_Final-590x332.jpg

 

The Xbox One gets a taste of Halo with the release of Halo: Spartan Assault today, a day earlier than planned (with the Xbox 360 version hitting in January 2014), but it is far from your traditional Halo.  Halo: Spartan Assault is a top-down perspective shooter that was first released on Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 back in July 2013.  Microsoft decided to port the mobile/PC game for our console pleasures.
 
The game allows you to dive deeper into the backstory between Halo 3 and Halo 4, during the UNSC-Covenant ceasefire.   A rogue Covenant infantry attacks Draetheus V in a blatant disregard for the ceasefire.  Stationed on Draetheus is Spartan Davis and Commander Palmer.  You play through the events during the attack and discover why the rogue Covenant infantry is so interested in the planet.
 
Halo: Spartan Assault contains over 30 levels of gameplay and a coop mode for you and a friend along with coop survival where you team up to survive the infamous flood.  The game brings a refreshing twist to Halo and definitely adds an element of fun while we wait for Halo 5 to be released in the near future.
 
The graphics are visually stunning and the game is a direct rendition of what we’ve come to enjoy in the Halo universe.  The gameplay is very simple – the left joystick moves the character and the right joy stick can help aim the weapon at enemies causing more direct hits.  You simply move through the levels running and gunning.

I dream of modded stuff,no not really Lol.
 
 
 
 
XBOX ONE ALREADY MODIFIED
 
 
 
 
Unfortunately for those who want to game on the go, you’ll still have to stick to your phone, tablet, PS Vita, or Nintendo 3DS, as this laptop mod does not include a battery and will need to be tethered to a power outlet. The ports on the back of the unit have been preserved, but an audio-out port was added for audio flexibility. Not losing its branding, the Xbox One logo power light has been moved to the top of the laptop,
 
so you can still see that the hardware is an Xbox One should you want to display it without actually using it.
If you’re in the market for an Xbox One laptop, Terry has already sold his mod to an undisclosed buyer, so we don’t have the information to reveal who you should bother about a resale. We also don’t know the price, but it’s safe to assume it costs more than the $499 retail Xbox One standalone console.

I have loved Bungie for a long time, even when they switched to another game.

Eric Hirshberg has provided some details in regards to his company’s expectation on the upcoming multiplatform video game, “Destiny.” According to a report from Daily Finance on Dec. 22, the chief executive officer at Activision is hoping that the upcoming title will be joining “Call of Duty” and “Skylanders” as a “multi-billion dollar franchise.”

 

Eric Hirshberg stated that the reception for the shared-world first-person shooter has been “incredible,” adding that it won multiple awards at the GamesCom convention earlier this year. He also disclosed that the video game managed to achieve the most pre-orders for any new intellectual properties in history

TitanFall is my favorite upcoming game, what about you?

 

 

 

TitanFall Wants Atlas To BE Your CHOICE

 

 

 

A new video for Titanfall takes the form of an in-universe commercial for Hammond Robotics' Atlas model of Titans.

 
Hammond has long been the industry leader when it comes to weaponry, argues the commercial, and has a reputation of always delivering the very best in terms of quality. The Atlas has served soldiers well on every battlefield both against infantry and other Titans; why can't it serve you well too?

When I think of Bungie I imagine my good times in Halo 3... Wait a minute!!!

To celebrate the end of the 7th console generation, we've been holding a series of Community Events on some of its most definitive games. So far, that honour has fallen to Gears of War, which practically invented the cover system as it exists today, and Call of Duty, whose realistic, iron-sight gameplay set the standard for almost every FPS released thereafter.
 
The last game on our list of greats is perhaps the odd one out, in that it actually represents a style of gameplay which has actually begun to die out altogether. Nonetheless, even six years after its release it still bring in tens of thousands of players every day, and is often considered not only the high point, but the definitive game of its series. The game in question, of course, is none other than Halo 3.
 
Although this playdate will follow the form of the previous two to a degree, both the Heroic Map Pack and the standalone map Cold Storage will be required to participate - both of these maps are available for download from the Xbox LIVE marketplace, and are completely free. Owners of Halo 3: ODST may note that the Halo 3 multiplayer disc contains both of these map packs, and so this disc may simply be used instead.
 
This Community Event will take place on Saturday, December 28th at 12pm EST (5pm GMT). The host for this playdate is currently Dog- however, as ever to take part all you need to to is sign up in this thread, which will be updated no later than 12pm EST on Friday.
 
As perhaps the greatest title in the Halo series, we hope you'll all come along and give this giant the send-off it deserves!

There will be giveaways along with game recording.

Thinking about Halo makes my Christmas a little better, just reminds me of the fun times I had with my friends back in the day when we didn't have to think about college, work and our future. Miss those times, a lot.

 

Have a happy holiday to everyone here, by the way. :) It's 7am here, not long to go before the opening of gift commences.
